Which of the following statements could be used to describe the location of point p, shown on the number line? a. p=-2.5b. p< -1c. p> -1d. p< -2

B. P<-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Option A is incorrect as if P = -2.5 then the point P should lie in between -3 and -2.

Option B is correct as P is less than -1 and its value is nearly -1.7. It is the only suitable answer in the given options.

Option C is incorrect because P is less than 1.

Option D can't be correct as P is greater than -2 not smaller than -2.

  b.   the average rate of change of f(x) is less than the average rate of change of g(x).

step-by-step explanation:

since the length of the interval is the same in each case, we only need to compare the change in y-value to see which is greater.

so the change in y-value for function f is (6 )) = 9.

the table tells us

so the change in y-value for function g is (31 -1) = 30.

the change in y-value of f(x) on the interval is less than the change in y-value of g(x) on the same interval, so the average rate of change of f(x) is less than the average rate of change of g(x).

x=half
